New video of Nokia Sea Ray discovered, this time with buttons! (Update 3: Q logo revealed--Qualcomm!)



Ever since last week, Mango hardware has been quite the leaky faucet and a new look at the mother lode of all future Windows Phones just leaked onto the web. Yes, the video above shows a quick hands on of the Nokia Sea Ray in action and includes real Windows Phone buttons (no buttonless for you)  as well as a nice long look at it running honest-to-god Mango. Awesome. Better watch it while it's up because Nokia's lawyers could be all over this soon!

Here are some noteworthy points from watching the video:
  • The phone appears to have been housed in a case similar to how the iPhone 4 was disguised as a 3GS before it looked. It looks like Nokia wasn't kidding when they mentioned "Apple-style" security.
  • Capacitive buttons are definitely a go, so that earlier buttonless rumor was most likely fake. Only time will tell if the Swipe UI is going to make the cut or not.
  • The phone boots up to a large new 7 logo before jumping into another odd screen which looked like it could have been a new bootup screen for Nokia (turned out to be a Qualcomm logo, see below) and then finally reveals the new Windows Phone Mango branding we spotted on other phones.
  • The button layout appears to be the same as the N9, with the power button on the right side just beneath the volume rocker and above the camera shutter key.
  • It's safe to say this prototype does not have a front-facing camera. It should have been in the bottom right corner and there also should have been a software button in the camera UI, but that may change in the future.
We'll post up some screenshots in a minute. We're also working on a YouTube upload for those weary of Youku's foreign flash player.

Update 1: Here are those promised still images, and boy does the Sea Ray look sweet.




Update 2: Embedded above is a copy of the video on YouTube. The original Youku video can be found embedded past the break.

Update 3: Well we now know what that mysterious 'q' logo was in the Sea Ray's boot screen--Qualcomm! This definitely means we'll be seeing some silicon from San Diego inside Nokia's first Windows Phone.
